PBL reflection

Today on FLIM THAT SCIENCE my google documents was not working so I had to rewrite the supplies and stuff. Then Cooper found the problem and by that time it was time to do a reflection. I rate myself a 3.

Science!

What happend when you put vinegar and baking soda together: When Cooper R. put the vinegar into the cup of baking soda then it started bubbling in the cup.

What happend when we mixed baking soda and vinegar in a cup then poured co2 on a candle: well, when I poured the co2 on the candle it blew the candle out.

How did the co2 cause it to burn out the candle? 

mYTH busters

1. name 1 or more of the myths in todays episode: can a soda in a foam cup kill someone if you throw it out the window of a car, how long can you hold on to a city building if you fell out of the window.

2. explain why these myths were labeled busted, confirmed or plausible: the soda can one was busted and the falling out of a building one was busted.

3. pick 1 or more myth that you saw today and explain a different way you might test it: I wouldn't wanna test any of them differently

4. put down your own myth that you think should be tested: I really don't know.

Newton's Laws of Motion

Your team must do the following:

1. Have a skit that demonstrates one of Newton’s Laws of motion

2. Have an online or offline poster demonstrating a law.

3. Have an animation that shows one law of motion.

All three laws must be presented.

Newton’s Laws are:

First Law

An object at rest will stay at rest unless a force acts on it. An object in motion will stay in motion unless a force acts on it. = animation

Second Law

The more mass an object has, the harder it is to put it in motion or stop it if it is already in motion. = poster

Third Law

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. = skit

Group Jobs

1. Come up with an action plan - who does what

2. Meet back in regular intervals , 15 min?, 20 min? Less?

3. Discuss progress and give helpful feedback

Problem 3: ARchitecture: The Musical
Divisions I, II, III & IV
For this problem, teams will create and present an original performance that includes a replica of a documented architectural structure that was built between 1,000 AD and 1,600 AD. The performance will include three works of art that "disappear" and two characters that go on a quest to find them. When the works of art are found, they will be incorporated into the replica. The performance must also include two songs that are accompanied by some type of choreographed movement.
Cost limit: $125 USD.

Dancing: Hanna mercedes hayden and izzy
Singing: noah
Acting: everyone
People on quest: noah and izzy

Does salt water effect plant growth?

State The Problem: Does salt water effect plant growth

Gather Info: Salt water affects plants by dehydrating them. Salt water also affects plant by stunting there 

growth. The affect that the salt water has on plants depends on how much salt water is in it.

Hypothesis: I think the salt water plant will die and the regular water will be just fine.

Experiment Steps:

1.  you get 4 cups

2. you get the lima bean

3. you get the plastic wrap

4. you get the paper towel

5. After that you put some salt and water in one of the cups

6. Then you label the salt water cup

7. then you get another cup and put just regular tap in the cup

8. then you label the tap water cup

9. you get the two other cups and sit them down beside you, you will need them in a second

10. You get the lima bean and you wrap the lima bean in the paper towel ( tip: leave the lima bean a little bit out so it can get some sun) 

11. then you wet the paper towel that has the lima bean in it

12.  then you put the lima bean with the paper towel wrapped around it in a cup

13. Poor out the remaining water from the cup

14.  after that you do the 10th, 11th and 12th step again with the last cup ( but you use tap water instead of saltwater)

15. Then you put the cups with the lima beans in them by your window seal so your bean can get sunlight to grow

16. Then check your lima beans every day to see the results

Results: 9/17/2012 My fresh water plant is growing better then the salt water. The salt water plant is not growing at all.
